Description: Close your eyes, put your VR headset on, and you’ll become a shipwrecked man, on a tropical island in the middle of Pacific Ocean. First of all, you have to survive. That’s because your hunger and thirst will make you suffer, like in real life. So you have to understand how to satisfy your primal needs, interacting with animals or plants that you will find on the island. Of course, you will need to craft some tools, using rocks, wood, plants, and start a fire to cook or to have light during the night. But, if surviving is your first objective, the second one is to escape the island. To achieve to run away, you’ll have to build a raft and face the Ocean’s waves.
Review: Lost in the Ocean VR might have been something worth owning, something worthwhile playing, but sadly it has long been abandoned and is left in a state that is hard for me to recommend. The promise of the game works well and while basic and a little blurry the graphics are OK. It’s just way too short and far to shallow a game to every justify anywhere near the £5.59 asking price. If this every becomes free do consider taking a look, but other than that I wouldn’t pay anything for this unless there is a LOT more content added.
